Great picture Bazza and all I can say is she must be ultra speedy normally! Hope I am running your times when I turn 70!😮 You don't need to change a thing☺

She's probably gone home and said, " There was this amazing 69 year old guy at park run today! I hope I'm still running at that age!" 😊

I agree with IP - I bet she was impressed. And the poor thing will have to stop for a while after giving birth, too... I don't think I could have run when I was pregnant, my kids all loved kicking me in the bladder too much for me to take the risk.

Great picture Bazza. Could be worse, it could have been you with the pregnant-looking belly, instead of looking so trim. :)

Never mind Bazza - I was passed this morning by a man pushing one child in a buggy and carrying another on his back. I got a PB so it wasn't as if I was having a bad day.
